Join us on February 1st, from 7-11 PM, as we transform our space into a tribute to Vienna’s ball season.
Each year, our studio takes clients to Vienna for Ball Season, and this event serves as a dress rehearsal for that grand experience. Whether you're preparing for Vienna or simply eager to dance the Viennese waltz, this evening is for you.
Event Highlights:
Viennese Waltz Class: Start the evening with a class designed for all levels, ensuring everyone is ready to glide across the floor with grace. Whether you’re experienced or a novice, your participation adds to the spirit of the evening.
Quadrille Class: The Fledermaus Quadrille pulls you into its whirlwind of joy the moment the music begins. Surrounded by elegantly dressed dancers, you become part of the lively rhythm, spinning, weaving, and laughing as the spirited melody of Johann Strauss fills the room. The energy is contagious—gowns swirl, partners trade places, and the playful choreography blurs the line between graceful elegance and delightful chaos, making you feel alive in every step. Think of the quadrille as an elegant square dance.
An Invitation to Your Best Self - What to Wear:
This is a formal, white/black-tie optional event (or wear our best clothes), but it’s also an opportunity to step into a version of yourself you may not always show the world. Think of your attire as a costume—not just clothing, but a portal to your royal, Viennese persona. Imagine dressing as your most elegant, gracious, and vibrant self.
When selecting your attire, choose something that makes you feel regal and inspired—something that draws out confidence, kindness, and celebration. For some, this might mean an enchanting gown with a touch of whimsy or sophistication. For others, it could be a classic tuxedo or tails with a flourish of individuality.
But this isn’t just about the fabric you wear; it’s about the energy you bring. Your “costume” is also an attitude - a decision to bring merriment, to share joy, and to enrich the experience of everyone you meet. Let your presence inspire others to embrace their own best selves, creating an elevated experience where the whole room vibrates with intentionality and grace.
Dress not only for yourself but for the shared story we’ll create together. Bring your most radiant spirit, and let’s enjoy an evening that none of us will soon forget.
Open Social Dancing: Following the classes, the night will be alive with the rhythms of Viennese waltz, English waltz, foxtrot, quickstep, and swing. Every dance, every conversation, and every gesture contributes to the collective elegance of the evening.
Desserts and Coffee: Vienna is renowned for its desserts and coffee, so we’ll feature a beautiful collection of pastries and brews to keep you refreshed and ready to dance.
